april 10-12 2026 at SUNLIGHT MOUNTAIN, Glenwood springs, COlorado
We're taking over Sunlight Mountain Resort for Buck Wild's 6th annual Boot Tan Fest! You're invited to join us for this empowering, safe, and wildly fun space where women and nonbinary folks come together to celebrate their love for the mountains.
WHO WE ARE & WHAT WE DO
COMMUNITY
At its core, Boot Tan Fest is about fostering a fearless, fun-loving community where women & nonbinary folk lift each other up. BTF is packed with opportunities for women to push their boundaries and embrace their authentic selves. We’re proud to continue our partnership with EDGE Outdoors, a nonprofit dedicated to increasing representation and access for BIPOC women in snowsports. Together, we’re making the mountain more inclusive—because everyone deserves to share in these lifelong friendships, stories, and epic experiences.
SKIIING & RIDING
Lifts will run from 10 AM to 3 PM—and for the uphill warriors, 24/7 access is yours! This is more than just a day on the mountain; it’s your chance to ride in a way no one else can. Don’t miss out!
VENDOR VILLAGE
Shop women-owned and women-led brands at our Vendor Village! From our badass sponsor, Stio, to local ceramicists, and favorites like Coalition Snow—this is your chance to support the women shaking up the outdoor world. And yep, the tattoo booth is back this year! So grab a mug of Buck Wild Coffee, take a stroll, and treat yourself to some one-of-a-kind finds
LIVE MUSIC & Fashion show
We can't resist a good groove, and this year’s lineup is stacked! Get ready to vibe with talented musicians from all over the country. On deck, we’ve got hip hop artist, Miranda Writes, local and lovable LVDY, the always amazing Echo Rose Rising, even more to be announced! And new this year we're demonstrating fashion as resistance. Emceed by Pro Skier & model Kellyn Wilson, your favorite brands will be making their own looks and showing them off!
CAMPING
Get ready to channel your inner mountain woman, because camping in a ski resort parking lot has never been this epic! Let’s be real—camping is low-key the best part of Boot Tan Fest. It’s where we gather around (probably a propane stove), jam to live music, cook up something questionable, and dance under the stars (or the glow of your car’s headlights). Camping is included this year, so rally your camper, minivan, Subaru, or trusty truck, bundle up for a cold one, and convince your friends that type-two fun is where legends are made. And yes, the tailgate competition is on, so pack your disco balls and hot dogs—we’re going for gold!
GIVEAWAYS & MORE
We’ve got swag from our Sponsors, Stio, Buck Wild Coffee, Mad Hippie and more. One year, we tossed hundreds of vibrators into the crowd (yes, really), so who knows what wild surprises we’ve got in store this year? Buckle up, because our raffles are about to get legendary—and you won’t want to miss out on the loot!
